I only have basic Welsh, but could it be the White Lion in Denbigh?

Do you have it written on a record somewhere?

Llwyn-y-gwynt or Llwynygyfyng is a township in Aberchwiler, Denbighshire. That's the nearest I can find in "Welsh Administrative and Territorial Units" by Melville Richards, UWP, 1969.

Lots of mentions of Llwyngwyn in newspapers, which I guess is the name of multiple farms in Wales. though there are none in Denbighshire on Welsh Tithe Maps.

There is this Llwyngwyn near Rudry, but I think that is in Glamorgan:

Many mentions of Llwyngwyn in Denbigh newspapers, but they are in Welsh, so I can't read them.

Do you have a name associated with the place?

Perhaps William can point us to the original reference?

There is a Bryngwyn Hall in Tremeirchion, Denbighshire.
